Allegiant Air Announces a Plethora of New Routes!

Allegiant Air has announced 22 new routes and new cities / destinations that include Savannah, Akron, Memphis, and Raleigh. As usual with Allegiant flights the new routes are not daily but typically only have 2-4 round trip flights per week. The new routes include the following:

My Quick Analysis

Perhaps the most interesting addition is Allegiant Air’s new focus city at Savannah / Hilton Head (SAV). Not many cities currently have direct routes to Savannah and this will definitely add some pressure to the typically expensive destination. Hopefully if the first couple routes are successful additional cities will receive service to Savannah next summer. Another great add is the Cincinnati (CVG) to Austin (AUS) route and speaks to what could potentially be future route additions. Allegiant has been quietly adding service to medium sized markets like Memphis, Raleigh, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Indianapolis whereas they use to only focus on small underserved airports.
